At all times, the website must look 100% same as the ORIGINAL CONDITION videos shared with the Tester. These 3 videos have been attached with this project description. If website gets modified in anyway, this agreement will become void and Tester shall receive no money for this project, unless Tester can restore the website back to its ORIGINAL CONDITION which is accepted by me. NOTE: I am not a technical person and have no idea to find out whether the hired person (Project winner) has done the work properly or not. Hence, I might hire 1-2 additional applicants (security experts in freelancer.com) who would be paid to check the work of the project winner. This is just to ensure that all work has been done properly by the Project winner. I might undergo a 2nd round of Testing. Project winner will be provided login details to Ventraip cPanel. Cost: Please provide quote for fixing all above errors. Deadline: I am fine with 1 Jul 2026. But if you need more time, let me know. Any questions, ask me.

Hi, I have extensive experience with WordPress security hardening, performance optimization, Elementor websites, and server-level configurations. I've reviewed your requirements and understand that the website's design, layout, content, media library, and branding must remain completely unchanged. I can address the listed security, performance, SEO, accessibility, and WordPress configuration issues, including security headers, user enumeration protection, wp-login hardening, PHP updates, SMTP setup, cron optimization, jQuery cleanup, font optimization, plugin/core verification, and post-fix Lighthouse/WPScan audits. Before implementing any plugin installations, removals, or changes requiring your approval (including Yoast/RankMath), I will discuss them with you first. Any additional issues discovered during the audit will be reported before making changes. Deliverables: ✔ Fixes for all approved issues ✔ Re-run Lighthouse and WPScan audits ✔ Excel checklist detailing completed items and reasons for any unresolved items ✔ Full documentation of all changes made I will work on a backup/staging copy where possible and ensure the website remains visually identical to the original condition shown in your reference videos. A few questions: Do you have a staging environment available? Can you provide the QA reports and audit results? Is cPanel access included alongside WordPress admin access? I look forward to discussing the project further. Best regards,

Hello, With 10+ years of experience in WordPress security, performance optimization, and production-level QA remediation, I have handled complex audit-driven fixes while preserving exact visual integrity and ensuring compliance with strict “no-design-change” constraints. I understand your requirement that absolutely no changes be made to layout, branding, or design structure. I will treat this as a controlled technical hardening + audit cleanup task only, and will flag any item that requires your approval before making changes, exactly as specified. Let’s begin by reviewing a staging-safe checklist and confirming access details so I can ensure every fix is applied systematically and reported clearly in your required Excel audit format. thank you Regards Gaurav Garg

Hi, I have gone through your full list of 34 items carefully, along with the DO NOT FIX and Tester restrictions. This is a clear, well-documented brief and exactly the kind of WordPress hardening and performance work I handle regularly. A few quick questions before I finalize my quote: 1. For item 9, do you want me to recommend Yoast vs RankMath based on your site needs, or will you decide separately and just want the meta description added manually for now? 2. For item 31, can you point me to the exact homepage sections where icons and blue tick marks should appear, or will you guide me live once I am in? 3. Do you have the WPScan and Lighthouse baseline reports already, or should I run fresh ones before starting? I will fix all 33 items in order, flag anything uncertain (like item 32) before touching it, and document everything in the Excel checklist you requested with fixed/not fixed status and reasons. I have handled PHP upgrades, security header configuration, HSTS, COOP, clickjacking protection, jQuery conflicts, and Core Web Vitals fixes (LCP, render-blocking resources) on multiple WordPress and Elementor sites before. Given the scope and the precision required here, I am ready to provide a detailed quote once you confirm the above. I can comfortably meet your 1 Jul 2026 deadline. Looking forward to your reply. Best regards, Hafiz Anas

Hi there, Your requirement to keep the site looking 100% identical while fixing security, performance, accessibility, and WordPress setup issues is exactly the right way to handle this kind of cleanup. I’d approach it carefully on backup/staging first, document every item, and only make changes that don’t alter the current design or admin access rules you listed. I’ve handled similar WordPress hardening and cleanup work before, including plugin audits, header/security fixes, Elementor-based sites, duplicate script issues, and Core Web Vitals improvements without disturbing the front end. For this scope, my quote would be AUD 250, and I can complete it in about 4–6 days including re-running Lighthouse/WPScan and delivering the Excel checklist report. Before starting, I’d just want to confirm whether you already have a staging copy on Ventraip, or should I create a safe workflow from the live site first? Thanks, Srijidh
